Reas the thread carefully c0c0nut....
I will replace the cover with the plastic one as soon as the deal is confirm
new plastic cover, of course

my new project now is, save budget!

doing it ....
puasa saja mana cukup bang kalau tak jimat berbelanjaViperize,
it's normal...
aro can even stay up to 1 week without food
IF u don't want get yourself a headache, buy feeder fish for your aros
let them eat the feeder fish when they feel hungry
and you will not get a headache

that's what worrying me, my JAR didn't show any scales yet eventhough already 13 inches long

Nowadays feeder fish isn't longkang type
normally FS breed them n keep it in big tank

saif, may be still 13 inches
no sign of scale yet, i guess

Why not try fresh prawns guys...?

I just fed my JAR with 1 big fresh prawn
took out the shell, cut it into small pieces for easy swallow
wait few minutes before feed him to make sure the prawn gets more soft
then, feeding time easier la coz can swallow the prawn meats easily

1 big fresh prawn in not more than 5 minutes, bit by bit
before that eat SW somemore around 6-7 ekor

i notice my JAR & Silver kuat makan la nowadays, especially the JAR
last time i bought 1 box of SW can make it into 7 days
now only 6 days already nearly out of SW stock!

Wednesday, LFS near my house close, thursday only can buy SW n feeder fish

i remember last night i fed my JAR with 1 cockroach before go to bed
so far 3 cockroach for 5 nights
i wonder why r so many cockroach nowadays aaa? before this, hard to find one

Done already
fed the JAR with lizard before, so far 2 lizards, 4 cockroaches


usually i didn't feed the aros in the morning
normally after back from work around 6pm feed them
n then somemore like between 9 to 11pm

I will feed him grasshopper one day
but quite hard to find grasshoppers nowadays

I used market prawn for my JAR
so far no refuses, he ate all the prawn i threw in

Before u feed the prawn, here's some tips to share:-
1 - take out the prawn's shell
2 - cut it into pieces
3 - Let the prawn meat outside the fridge for roughly 10 minutes. This is to make the prawn more softer & smelly. FYI, aros like softer & smelly prawn
4 - Use bigger prawn for better protein . Don't use white prawn coz got NO protein. Use bigger prawn. I know it's expensive BUT you are not gonna feed 1 kilos of big prawn isn't it?

good luck

CF,
i doubt the water will cloud coz i put the prawn in the fresh water 1st before give it to my JAR
plus somemore, when i put in the tank the JAR ate the prawn rightaway, no chance to drop at the bottom
I just used 2,3 prawns, last night my JAR ate 2 prawns, early night around 8pm and at 12am
love to see he ate the prawn, not missed even a single small pieces

The JAR improved much better, can put my hand outside the tank without running away
he also swam a lot on top instead of bottom tank before this

c0c0...
RM500 for your aro is damn cheap man
why not wait somemore for your aro to grow n see how much potential that guy has
n then decide lor... c0c0
that kind of Super Red i saw at FS at Kajang recently for RM888
It's about 4 to 5 inches long
thinking of buying that kind of Super Red too

Y dun u survey more FS at KL for Super Red or HB RTG??

CF,
may be i bring u with me before buying any Super Red

CF,
did u receive my PM?
did your friend, the restaurant owner still interested with my Silver
just ask him to pay RM60 cash instead of voucher
and i will send it to his restaurant
the money just to cover fuel to go down to KL

hahahahahaha c0c0
i thought the same la c0c0
no need to trade your aro for RM500, it's damn way too cheap!

better keep it, wasting your money if u trade for the price like that
keep it, who knows in the future got people who want to trade or buy for more than RM2K

there's few aro inside the tank
i think there should be no problem for the nitrate what so ever

If got nitrate problem, it will minor problem i guess
no wonder the fish owner put dozens of feeder fish inside
somemore the filter of the tank must be in great conditionSince my tank got internal filter like FS does
i actually put the bio ring together with the liquid pump
since the internal filter has 2 separate parts, 1 for filter media & 1 for pump...

so far my JAR's getting healthier n hungrier whenever i came back from work
waiting at the surface for food
